| Alanis Nadine Morissette was born
on the 1st of June 1974, to French-Canadian and Hungarian parents. Raised
in Ottawa, Canada, Alanis got her start as a pop diva in the Canadian
music industry, an industry that has seen fellow natives Shania Twain
and Celine Dion also rise to international success. Alanis was signed
to MCA/Canada at the age of 14 and in 1991, her pop-induced self-titled
debut (at the time she was penned simply as Alanis) was released. At a
time where female pop music was at its peak and riding on the coattails
of pop stars Debbie Gibson, Tiffany and Belinda Carlisle, Alanis was a
hit. Her latest contribution to the music industry, Alanis Unplugged,
consists of acoustic recordings. As for acting, she made her on-stage
debut in March, performing in The Vagina Monologues, and recently appeared
on an episode of Sex and the City, sharing an on-screen kiss with Sarah
Jessica Parker. |
